Servo Pack
If you have never used a servo before, let alone control one from a
PC, then the “Servo Pack” provides an easy “plug-and-go” solution. Once
you have the Servo running under PC control the knowledge and confidence
you gain by actually using a Servo is invaluable in applying those
techniques to a wide range of applications. The Servo supplied is one of
the most popular types on the market and understanding its principles of
operation provides a solid basis for using many other types.

- For those who are already familiar with servos, the servo
pack offers a very convenient way of adding a servo to your PC
application.

- For programmers, the supplied DLL means you have a servo that is
instantly controllable from within your own program (Visual Basic, C, C++
etc…)

All that is required to get the servo up and running under PC
control are four AA size batteries. The provision of pre-assembled
interconnecting wires means that no soldering is required. All you need to
do is plug in the servo cable to the MotorBee , connect the MotorBee to a
free USB port using the lead supplied and install the software.

It’s that simple !

Although the servo pack contents come
pre-wired for ease of first use, the circuit diagram for this arrangement
is shown below for reference and to encourage further exploration of this
area of control.

For those not familiar with circuit diagrams the following
photo illustrates the connection.

For details of installing the Motorway
software and operating the servo from it, please refer to the MotorBee
manual.
Also please note that the MotorBee is fully functional with
regard to it’s other facilities and is capable of driving up to 4 DC
motors as well as the supplied servo.
